Abraham Hicks is onto something Gratitude or Appreciation which comes first

December 11, 2009

Abraham Hicks  is onto something!

So here’s the deal.  Timeline:   Dec 2007… I had just relived, for the umptienth time a memory about my exhusband that was painful and had kept me stuck, spinning my relationship wheels for years.  YUP years!!!     This story took place a few years ago, but the memory of how I banished the haunt is still powerful because it allowed me to move on and up into my vibrant life.  

Simple process… I invited the memory to a meeting, along with everyone in it.  We talked I asked questions like,  what made you do that?   Why was important for you to do it that way?  What were your really afraid of?  What else were you really afraid of?  How could we have done this differently?   We, all of us in the memory, negotiated a new imaginary ending.  I thanked all the memory participants and let them know I was releasing them now that we had found a better ending.  

As I worked through the memory, patterns of behaviour became obvious.  The patterns were mine, how I reacted to things.   Patterns were his fear and insecurity.  I was able to take this knowledge of how I reacted to his fear and insecurity out of the memory.  This was an empowering tool for me to use every day.   Forgiveness is also a powerful tool. 

Next, I felt gratitude welling up inside me, a huge bubble of gratitude for having found the golden nugget of learning that would grow me as a person in how I looked at others and similar situations in the future.  BECAUSE I will be tested with a similar situation in the future.  The Universe just wants to make sure that I really learned what was there to be learned.  LOL    If you would like to know more about this forgiveness process check  http://www.portal2positivity.com . 

NOTE:  I recommend the first time you do this process to have a friend or guide or coach present.  It can be quite emotional.  If you need help with the process let me know portalcoach@live.ca

The point is that after I felt and offered GRATITUDE  by saying “thank you” for giving me this new APPRECIATION of this situation.  I truly felt appreciation as another kind of joy expanding my heart and zinging out into the Universe to be boomeranged back at me a few minutes later.  The feeling increased and became even more joyful.  I glowed with appreciation for at least a day afterward.  People noticed.   LOA kicked in right then and there.

Gratitude is an emotional response to a specific situtation or group of situations, Appreciation is an overall sense of wonder and serenity that comes out of recognizing the Gratitude piece in the first place.   Folks, ya can’t have one without the other.   First comes Gratitude then comes Appreciation.

Life essence coaching is the process where we get really foundational in finding gratitude and appreciation in our lifes.   http://www.portal2positivity.com
